Tides of War

I was wondering if some of the eccentricities of Mp could be explained here.

-I have heard there will be the 3 opposing nations with Mercenaries, Assassins and the Free French Fleet as alternate factions. Is this correct?

-Will there be multiple servers or one server?

-Can ships be customized? Paint schemes and ship-savvy colours would be ever-so-grand.

-Bounties and monitory gain. It makes the world go round. Will money be a part of Mp? (I would spend all mine on painting my ship!)

-Ports. Are they national and factional safe-havens, with some being "free-for-all"

and what can you do in a port?

I hope this isn't to much to bombard you with at once, please feel free to post links to any of these questions that have been already covered in detail. Thanks.

Roughly, yes. The details for mercenaries are still being thrashed out. The Assassins are a pilot test for it.

-Will there be multiple servers or one server?

Multiple, though initially probably only one.

-Can ships be customized? Paint schemes and ship-savvy colours would be ever-so-grand.

In short, yes it is possible. It is likely that certain groups will have their own schemes, but unlikely that individuals will (too much impact on performance plus makes moderating the taste of paintjobs a nighmare).

-Bounties and monitory gain. It makes the world go round. Will money be a part of Mp? (I would spend all mine on painting my ship!)

Yes, I believe so. Not quite sure how it will work though.

-Ports. Are they national and factional safe-havens, with some being "free-for-all" and what can you do in a port?

Ports can change hands. It is likely that the core factions will have safe havens of somesort though.
